The Harry Potter books reclaimed the top three on the most read Amazon books

There was plenty of change on the list of most read Amazon books from July 26 to Aug. 1, and it wasn’t just in the Top 3. It’s time to break down the full list.

The Harry Potter books had been knocked down a spot when Jim Butcher’s Peace Talks jumped into first place during the previous week. However, the three books moved back into their original places, with Peace Talks losing three spots on the list during the past week.

As for the other books, they moved down a few spots. The Order by Daniel Silva saw a good gain on the list, moving seven spots up into the Top 5. And it wasn’t the only book that saw a good gain. The Sandman also moved up seven spots, narrowly missing out on a place in the Top 10.

Most other books moved one or two places on the list. The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes was the biggest mover down, losing three places on the list. It remains in the Top 15, but it may not be there next week.

The list did see one new book on the list. Debra Webb’s Trust No One joined the list in 20th place. It’s the only new book on the list and will hopefully get the chance to move up the list in the coming weeks. With some of the other books starting to move out of the list, this is certainly possible.
